The Triple Threat are back – Proffitt, Dieter and Corinne discuss episodes 5 and 6 of the first season of Game of Thrones on HBO, “The Wolf and The Lion” and “A Golden Crown.” There are some exciting events in these two episodes, including perhaps the most disturbing mother/son scene in television history, a moment of triumph for our favorite Lannister, deepening danger for our favorite family, the Starks, and the resolution of Visery’s quest for a golden crown.
We also announced the winners of the House Stark and House Lannister soaps from Geek Soap!
Robb Stark
We also discuss the brilliant Simpson’s Game of Thrones opening, which you can find here.
Viserys Targaryen
Our next podcast will cover episodes 7 and 8, “You Win or You Die” and “The Pointy End.” Have questions you’d like us to answer or topics you want to hear covered in our discussion? Send them to [email protected] and we’ll do our best to cover them!
About Rachel Proffitt
Rachel Proffitt – Rachel is in a state of fluxx, having taken a year off from teaching high school social studies to pursue writing, adventure, geekery and all things beautiful. She adds a touch of class to this ordinarily crass and reckless group of guys. When we are not enjoying her brilliance here, we can always click over to Good Girls Gone Geek to get more!
Dieter; minor nitpick Jory is Rodrik’s nephew not his son. His father was Martyn Cassel who died fighting with Ned at the Tower of Joy in the books but is not mentioned in the show.
Audio much improved but Dieter still seems a little louder than Corinne and Rachel and there are some occasional drops of sound and background weirdness.
Thanks for the ongoing effort. Good listen.
Thanks for listening and the feedback! We’re always happy to hear it. We’re hoping to start answering questions and taking topics from listeners, so if you have any suggestions shoot us an e-mail at [email protected]
Oh! Right, nephew. That must have been the wine talking.
